    15524779-Ti.gif +1 for number 2.

    I think #1 is also a very good candid; the sort of uncertainty of the front kid and the air of confidence of the kid behind him.

    One and two work quite nicely - like the composition and expressions in 1, and, as Sara noted, 2 really tells the story. What's with the bizarre colors in 5 and 6? And where did you find that ollllld guy in #3?rolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gif

    Nice set, Rutt

    #2 is just outstanding. It hurts to look at it. In a good way.

    The guy in #3 doesn't look old to me. :D

    Nice candid portrait in #4. What a warm smile she has!

    And I'm totally not getting BD's comment about the colors in the last two. What am I missing?

    He doesn't like color. He hypnotized me when I took his class and now I'm trying to claw my way back. But his will is strong...

    Great pictures for sure. The second one certainly is a capture...

    What I like about the last, besides timing and the reflection, is your great use of the wide crop to put the subject into a lot of environment..

    I like color. I do. But there's an odd magenta cast to #5 - I'd almost swear it was shot with a Leica M8 -rolleyes1.gif . As to the last one - maybe it's just the dark rainy day and what that did to color.

    But I do like color - it just depends what it's being used for -

    And jeez, I'd think you'd be the last person in the world who would really need emoticons to recognize a joke.

    That's one of the big problems with the internet, and surely the reason God created emoticons.
